I should repost the reply I sent on the c4lcon list here: Hey Ed, Thanks for posting this summary here. It's really cool to see a description of how this is working. I think this is a pretty good example of how a library data mgt interface of the future might work: * Grab some free text describing a thing; * Try to clean it up, extract important concepts / themes topics * Reconcile against some sort lod-lam friendly controlled vocabulary/ies * Offer "cataloger" types an interface to accept / reject / refine those mappings as well as the text of the "metadata" itself. I would go to a breakout session about this. Best, -Corey On Wed, Feb 1, 2012 at 9:46 AM, Cynthia Ng <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > Just a quick 2 cents.
